How to trust the internet

After searching the internet for a few minutes on the new search engines we received in class, I found a well written web site that discusses how to verify information on a specific web page. The web site I would recommend is “Can you trust what you find on the WWW?” www.d239.org/vja/staff/www/verify.org. I would recommend this site because it gives a vivid description of the different questions that need to be asked when verifying a web site. The specific components which make a web site trustworthy are listed and then fully explained on subsequent pages of the web site. The site took me through each of the components in a question format and answered them by looking at a specific web page. They also had exercises to try and a summary printout.
